"En relation opstod". Lidt a la "Skud blev affyret"

Jacob Christensen @jacobchr.bsky.social · 1d

Ja, det er også en måde at reagere på. Det er interessant - på den ene side vil vi sige at højresiden som vi kender den siden 1980'erne, har sejret ("nyliberalisme" etc). På den anden side er den brudt sammen og er retningsløs. Meget mærkelig situation.

Danmark er lidt tricky, for 2022 var ikke et specielt imponerende valg for det radikale højre - splittet i NB, DF og DD, men V valgte træk b).

2026 kan blive anderledes.

Skal man i det tilfælde a) alliere sig med højreradikale og -ekstreme (se: Sverige) eller med b) socialdemokrater (se: Tyskland)?

Og hvad er den langsigtede liberale og konservative strategi? >

Kristol peger på et problem som borgerligt-liberale og -konservative står overfor: Den dominerende kraft på højre side er pt. hverken liberal eller konservativ, men højreradikal, hvis ikke -ekstrem. >

Key take-away: Political communication by mainstream parties plays a central role in the electoral success of the far right. When mainstream parties adopt far-right issues, they help to disseminate far-right ideas and legitimise them.

Tanke efter hurtig gennemlæsning af åbningstalen - vi skal helt hen til allersidst, før der kommer noget positivt i talen (bølleblåfuglen). Ellers på linje med Danish Carnage-talen med angst, trusler og ødelæggelse fra 2019

Nu mener regeringen jo at en dansk ordbog er overflødig, men dansk har nogle nuancer som engelsk ikke har. Der er fx bryde sammen, bryde ned og styrte sammen som på engelsk bare bliver lagt sammen i "collapse" (kollapse - som nu er et yndlingsord for journalister

Jeg synes, at vi alle skal (gen)lære et postsovjetisk ord:
Vatnik!

Det er er slangudtryk for pro-Kreml-propagandister.

I får brug for det, når svage sjæle og bots slutter sig til den russiske propaganda og bombarderer sociale medier med det.

Inden vi dømmer Lars Løkke ude, kan det være værd at se på denne figur med målingerne og valgresultatet fra 2022. Selvfølgelig har M nu en track record (og det vil være en god ide med et bedre kandidatfelt), men der kan ske ting i en valgkamp

Just not sure, really not sure, that I'd follow Kemi Badenoch as an example of the USA as a country that is protecting human rights without being in the ECHR.

The greatest trick autocrats ever played was convincing the poor that human rights only benefit foreigners.

Helene von Bismarck @helenebismarck.bsky.social · 3d

Well it has happened.
The leadership of the Conservative&Unionist Party is advocating leaving the ECHR. Not reforming it, or working with other members to alter any rules.
Leave it. Like Putin’s Russia.
I can’t help wondering what those Tories who are rightly proud of 🇬🇧’s support for 🇺🇦 are thinking.

"a tradition"???

It's literally the law.

This matters because the law is not self-executing. If we treat it as non-binding, its constraints grow even looser.

"The twentieth century’s worst episodes did not begin with gunfire. They began with named categories—“parasites,” “vermin,” “degenerates,” “enemies of the people”—ways of talking that prepared the ground for ways of acting."

Charlie Kirk, Ezra Klein, and the Cost of Civility-Theater Liberalism

“Talking across divides” is laudable—until it becomes a license to launder antidemocratic and dehumanizing ideas.

"Does the ECHR stop states from controlling their borders?"

No. The ECHR Court emphasises migration policies are up to states themselves.

"But the ECHR stops the UK from deporting foreign criminals."

No, it doesn't.

Successful human rights-based appeals against deportation are very rare.
